In a perfect world, we'd ban fossil fuels
But we can't, because we lack the tools
Funding is squeezed, it isn't free
Our target won't happen immediately
In a perfect world, all would be fair
Everybody would get their share
People wouldn't sleep on the streets
No hogging food no extreme feasts
In a perfect world, we'd have less extinction
Cities and habitats living in cohesion
Varieties of species would still be here
Biologists wouldn't be living in fear
In a perfect world, we'd get what we want
Linear processes to get what we sought
No bias, no luck, just your merit
But that's just not the way the world is
In a perfect world, we'd never get teased
We'd have something suitable for every in-between
Us squares wouldn't have to squeeze into circle holes
We wouldn't have to wrongly do what we're told
In a perfect world, we wouldn't feel blue
When we're scrolling through the news
We'd have no gore, we'd have no war
Our governments would be knit, not torn
In a perfect world, it wouldn't be a struggle
We wouldn't fall and trip over hurdles
Through life, we'd cruise, we'd have nothing to lose
But what good is it if we'd always snooze?
I imagine a world that isn't so sour
But then I realize this world isn't ours
It isn't perfect, that's just how it is
We must make the most of this
